You are in a job you don't like or an unsatisfactory marriage and you continue trying to live your life despite these obtrusions. ❋ Unknown (2010)
It has the leap into action ethos of the Golden Age, Silver Age art and modern content- violence that would give the Punisher a run for his money, an apocalyptic world without the wordy bloviating of an Alan Moore or a Stan Lee, and many a moral issue- minus the questionable titillation and constant left-leaning politically correct obtrusions. ❋ Unknown (2008)
But when I revised them I came to the conclusion that many of them were fussy obtrusions and very few of them likely to be really helpful to an intelligent and well-informed contemporary reader. ❋ Herbert George (2006)
He sees me suffering under the condescending attentions and prosaic discourses of the one, and the repulsive obtrusions of the other, without so much as a shadow of commiseration for me, or resentment against my tormentors. ❋ Unknown (2002)
Wilson felt at once the harmony of beautiful things that have lived long together without obtrusions of ugliness or change. ❋ Unknown (1912)
These obtrusions of the jackal always bring me bad luck. ❋ Lucas Malet (1891)
A man need not here take a small slice from the landscape, and fence it in from the obtrusions of an uncongenial neighbor, and there cut down his fancies to miniature improvements which a chicken could run over in ten minutes. ❋ Margaret Fuller (1830)

The hands themselves have 4 extremely long finger-like obtrusions along with 2 opposable thumbs on either side of the palm with a single large eye in the middle. ❋ Unknown (2009)
The extent to which the eponymous Nénette (she is the 40-plus year-old main subject of the film) might initially emerge as gimmicky to the cynical (me) is offset by the extent to which it is effective -- a term which can have as many different meanings as it has viewers; it is likely that critics (whatever "critic" means in the case of a film like this) alongside civilian viewers of this film will behave just the same as the zoo's visitors: our unavoidable projections/summations/obtrusions/yearnings are unintentionally (but guaranteed to seem) poetic -- and they are, and they are the real stars here -- which to some extent, makes Nénette like any other film. ❋ Michael Vazquez (2011)

The generality of my scheme does not admit the frequent notice of verbal inaccuracies; which Bentley, perhaps better skilled in grammar and poetry, has often found, though he sometimes made them, and which he imputed to the obtrusions of a reviser, whom the author's blindness obliged him to employ; a supposition rash and groundless, if he thought it true; and vile and pernicious, if, as is said, he in private allowed it to be false. ❋ Samuel Johnson (1746)
Boys are so [obtruse]. They are always [square] instead of [round]. ❋ Treekiller789 (2013)
Look at these [OBTRUSE] [columns] blocking my walking [route]! ❋ Laura (2005)
